Tuition services for children funded by the council

Please provide the following information regarding tuition services for children funded by the council:

1. What is the hourly pay rate for tutors providing home tuition or alternative provision to children funded by the council?

2. Is this rate based on the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD), National Joint Council (NJC) pay scales, or another pay structure? Please specify which scale/point.

3. If the council uses agency providers to supply tutors, what hourly rate should those agency tutors be paid after 12 weeks under the Agency Workers Regulations 2010?

4. Does the council have written policies requiring agency providers to comply with the Agency Workers Regulations 2010 regarding equal pay after 12 weeks?

I do not require any information about specific students, staff members, or agencies. I am only seeking information about pay rates and policies.

1. Home Tutors are paid in line with the School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD), the current median hourly rate for TMA6, is £35.85 per hour.

2. Home Tutors are paid on a range of points within the existing SCTPD minimum and maximum salary ranges for Main and Upper pay scales.

3. Agency Tutors would be paid the same rate of pay as Home Tutors after 12 weeks in line with the Agency Workers Regulations 2010.

4. Lincolnshire County Council’s Agency, relief and off-payroll workers policy outlines the Council’s approach to agency workers and equal treatment regarding pay & conditions and is available on Lincolnshire County Council’s website: https://www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/employment-policies/agency-relief-off-payroll-workers policy/2
